If you live in a city, it's easy to lose touch with the natural world around us. Sure, there are lots of great opportunities for hiking in Connecticut, and we've got state parks galore, plus waterfalls, beaches, rolling hills, and just about any other landscape you can think of. But if you need a few days to disconnect from your worries and reconnect with nature, a getaway to one of the Nutmeg State's many peaceful vacation rentals might be just what the doctor ordered. Check out these great Airbnbs in Connecticut nature:
1. Frog Hollow: Thompson
The Quiet Corner is a beautiful region of the state, and if you're looking to escape into nature, it's one of the best spots for it. Vacation rentals in the area don't come much better than Frog Hollow, a secluded cabin in Thompson, CT right along the French River.
The cabin can host up to two guests and it looks absolutely magical for a romantic getaway. You'll enjoy amenities like an outdoor grill and pizza oven, fire pit, telescope, canoes, TV, and WiFi that will make your stay comfortable.
